Boron-selective biaryl coupling approach to versatile dibenzoxaborins and application to concise synthesis of defucogilvocarcin M

Org Lett. 2014 Dec 5;16(23):6240-3. doi: 10.1021/ol5031734. Epub 2014 Nov 24.

Abstract

An efficient synthetic method for versatile dibenzoxaborins based on boron-selective Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling between o-borylphenols and aryl halides or triflates bearing a 1,8-diaminonaphthalene-protected o-boryl group is reported. A short synthesis of defucogilvocarcin M was achieved using the proposed method in combination with several other boron-mediated transformations.
